Welcome to

Celebrate Life Gallery

Award winning photographers,

Dave and Debra Vanderlaan, split their time between their Lake Worth, Florida cottage and their downtown Murphy, North Carolina home. Their love of the outdoors, travel, bicycling and photography provide unique opportunities to explore the countryside through the camera lens.

Their photo collection includes images from Appalachia, Tropical South Florida and other locations around the world. Many of their fine photos have been displayed at various shops, galleries and museums, including the Smithsonian Museum in Washington DC.
